Nebraska P%enitsntiary.
Twenty-Five Millions Dug Up.
.zeLoudon, May l6 The financial score
ssfy OF India has advised the govern
ment OF the discovery of an immense
amount OF treasure, estimated at over
S25, 000, 900, which had been secreted in
the palace Gwalior bythelat maharaiah.
The treasure had been sunk in pits un-
der the vaults beneath the zensna, and
the secret entrusted to o few confiden-
tial servants. The secretary Wal present
when the treasure was unesrthed. Al
ter removing the earth to the depth OF
six feet the workmen revealed great
Hagstones, and beneath these several
pits filled to the brim with silver,
chiefly freshly coined rupees. In each
pit was q plate recording the amount OF
treasure and the names of the officials
who assisted IN secreting it. The In
dian government has taken the hoard as
q loan from young mahara1ah. The ma
tive papers protest against this action.
They say that had maharaiah been an
adult instead OF under q regency con
frolled by the government, he would
never have invested his wealth in In
dian securities. The question will be
raised in parliament as to whether the
s'inysetment" be not another name for
SEIZURE.
